Medidata Solutions

Medidata Solutions is a Dassault Systemes company providing a unified cloud platform for clinical research in life sciences. Its flagship Rave EDC (electronic data capture) system and surrounding products power clinical trial data collection, management, randomization, imaging, safety, and patient-centric technology. For integrators, Medidata exposes Rave Web Services (RWS) - a RESTful API set that lets external systems push data to, pull data from, and edit data within Medidata Rave using the CDISC ODM (Operational Data Model) clinical-trial data standard. Access is coordinated through Medidata Developer Central, a membership program offering RWS documentation, a test environment, community support, and first-party Python client libraries (rwslib, requests-mauth, mauth-client). Authentication uses HTTP Basic auth or Medidata's MAuth request-signing scheme.

Medidata Solutions publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Healthcare, Clinical Trials, Life Sciences, and Electronic Data Capture.

Medidata Solutions’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, authentication, and 16 more developer resources.
